    Fixing into birch ply edge

    Now that's a cupbaord . Totally functional, well used. Not a high end spotless garage cabinet with tools in it for show only. I love it. Just my style.

    Found old cast iron glue pot

    It does say in the description the inner pot is not good for hobby use. that would negate the fire ins being paid out if something happened when you walked away from it for 5 minutes to get a coffee!

    Charnwood W629 Table saw? 2 buy or not 2 buy.

    You are very right. I'm a carpenter so any one of them would kill deal for me. But different table saws are directed at different skill sets. A back yard hobbyist is not going to have a bunch of Mafell tools. And full blown carpenter is not going to have a 2 $ chisel to do dovetails.each is...

    Charnwood W629 Table saw? 2 buy or not 2 buy.

    I would shy away from this for three reasons. All of which a descent table saw should do. 1. poor dust collection and jamming. 2. the t slot is not a standard size. Something you will regret. 3, and I don't believe you can put a stacked dado set on this saw.

    Okay did a little digging. It seems men's sheds been in Canada for 10 years. seemingly a new idea here, obviously from England or Europe, but still don't understand how you set them up there and who owns them. This could be a very good idea in my area. I don't know if there is even an other...

    This might be a really dumb question but bear with me I'm from Canada. What is a man's shed. Is it a workshop that people bring their own tools to and share with other people that bring tools. Or is it a place that the local qovernment sets up and membership charged to use. Or is it totally...

    Festool KS60 to 100mm extractor

    I'm a builder here in Canada. all our house builds here in Windermere, B.C. are net zero houses. We strive for .5 air changes per hour, but most come out at point .6 - .7 per hour. I myself feel these new houses are making new house cost unaffordable, in the old days we had leaky houses. We...

    Spiral cutter head blades stuck

    Try heat the block then putting a smart piece of ice in bolt head then try and extract. Expand block. Shrink bolt. Might release. also try pb blaster soak. And when you do get the cheap supplied bolts out replace with high quality ones.
